यर्मिया 34
1 बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसर र तिनका सबै सेना, तिनको अधीनका पृथ्वीमा भएका सबै राज्य र तिनमा भएका सबै मानिसले यरूशलेम र यसका सबै सहरको विरुद्धमा युद्ध सुरु गर्दा यर्मियाकहाँ परमप्रभुको वचन यसो भनेर आयोः
The word which came unto Jeremiah from Yahweh, —when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and all his force and all the kingdoms of the earth the dominion of his hand, and all the peoples were fighting against Jerusalem and against all her cities, saying:
2 “परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छः जा र यहूदाका राजा सिदकियाहसँग बोल र यसो भन्, 'परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छः हेर्, मैले यो सहरलाई बेबिलोनका राजाको हातमा दिनै लागेको छु । उसले यसलाई जलाउनेछ ।
Thus, saith Yahweh God of Israel, Go and speak unto Zedekiah king of Judah, —and say unto him—Thus, saith Yahweh, Behold me! giving this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will burn it with fire;
3 तँ उसको हातबाट उम्कनेछैनस्, किनकि तँ निश्चय नै समातिनेछस् र उसको हातमा दिइनेछ । तेरा आँखाले बेबिलोनका राजाको आँखालाई हेर्नेछन् । तँ बेबिलोनमा जाँदा उसले तँसित सिधै कुरा गर्नेछ ।'
And, thou, shalt not escape out of his hand, For thou shalt be, taken, And into his hand, shalt thou be delivered, —And, thine own eyes, into the eyes of the king of Babylon, shall look, And his mouth, with thy mouth, shall speak And Babylon, shalt thou enter.
4 ए यहूदाका राजा सिदकियाह, परमप्रभुको यो वचन सुन् । तेरो विषयमा परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'तँ तरवारले मारिनेछैनस् ।
Nevertheless, hear the word of Yahweh, O Zedekiah, king of Judah, —Thus, saith Yahweh Concerning thee, Thou shalt not die, by the sword;
5 तँ शान्तिमा मर्नेछस् । तेरा पुर्खाहरू अर्थात् तँभन्दा अगिका राजाहरूको मृत्यु संस्कारमा भएजस्तै तिनीहरूले तेरो लाश जलाउनेछन् । तिनीहरूले भन्नेछन्, 'हाय मालिक!' तिनीहरूले तेरो निम्ति विलाप गर्नेछन् । मैल यो कुरा भनेको छु, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो ।”
In peace, shalt thou die, And with the burnings made for thy fathers the former kings who were before thee, so, shall they make a burning unto thee, And, with an, Alas lord! shall they lament thee, —Because of the word, I, have spoken, Declareth Yahweh.
6 तब यर्मिया अगमवक्ताले यरूशलेममा यी सबै वचन यहूदाका राजा सिदकियाहलाई घोषणा गरे ।
Then spake Jeremiah the prophet, unto Zedekiah king of Judah all these words in Jerusalem;
7 बेबिलोनका राजाका सेनाले यरूशलेम र यहूदाका बाँकी रहेका सबै सहरः लाकीश र आजेकाको विरुद्धमा युद्ध गरे । यहूदाका यी सहर किल्लाबन्दी गरिएका सहरको रूपमा बाँकी रहेका थिए ।
when, the force of the king of Babylon, was fighting against Jerusalem, and against all the cities of Judah that were left, —against Lachish and against Azekah, for they, remained among the cities of Judah as fortified cities.
8 राजा सिदकियाहले यरूशलेमका सबै मानिससित तिनीहरूको छुटकाराको घोषणा गर्ने करार बाँधेपछि यर्मियाकहाँ परमप्रभुको यो वचन आयो,
The word which came unto Jeremiah, from Yahweh, —after that King Zedekiah had solemnised a covenant with all the people who were in Jerusalem, proclaiming unto them liberty:
9 हरेक मानिसले आ-आफ्ना हिब्रू कमारा-कमारीलाई फुक्का गर्नुपर्छ । कसैले पनि आफ्नो यहूदी दाजुभाइलाई कमारा राख्नुहुँदैनथ्यो ।
that every man should let his servant and every man his handmaid, being a Hebrew or a Hebrewess, go free, —so that no man should use them as slaves, to wit a Jew his brother;
10 त्यसैले सबै अगुवा र मानिसहरू यस करारमा संलग्न भए, जसमा तिनीहरू हरेकले आ-आफ्ना कमारा-कमारी फुक्का गर्नुपर्थ्यो, जसले गर्दा तिनीहरू फेरि कमारा हुनेछैनन् । तिनीहरूले पालन गरे र तिनीहरूलाई फुक्का गरे ।
so then they hearkened—even all the princes and all the people who had entered into the covenant that every man should let his servant and every man his handmaid, go free, so as not to use them as slaves, any longer, —yea they hearkened, and let them go,
11 तर यसपछि तिनीहरूले आफ्नो मन बद्ले । तिनीहरूले फुक्का गरिदिएका कमारा-कमारीहरूलाई फर्काएर ल्याए, र तिनीहरूलाई फेरि कमारा-कमारी हुन जबरदस्ती गरे ।
howbeit they turned after that, and brought back the servants and the handmaids whom they had let go, free, and brought them into subjection as servants and as handmaids,
12 त्यसैले परमप्रभुको वचन यर्मियाकहाँ यसो भनेर आयो,
So then the word of Yahweh came unto Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying:
13 “परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वर यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, मैले तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरूलाई मिश्रदेश अर्थात् दासत्वको देशबाट निकालेर ल्याएको दिनमा म आफैले तिनीहरूसित एउटा करार बाँधें । त्यसति बेला मैले भनेको थिएँ,
Thus, saith Yahweh God of Israel, —I myself, solemnised a covenant with your fathers, in the day when I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slaves saying:
14 'प्रत्येक सात वर्षको अन्त्यमा हरेक मानिसले आफ्नो हिब्रू दाजुभाइलाई मुक्त गरिदिनू, जसले आफैलाई तँकहाँ बेचेको छ र छ वर्षसम्म तेरो सेवा गरेको छ । त्यसलाई स्वतन्त्र गराएर पठाउनू ।' तर तिमीहरूका पुर्खाहरूले मेरो कुरा सुनेनन् वा मेरा कुरा सुन्नमा आफ्ना ध्यान लगानन् ।
At the end of seven years, shall ye let go every man his brother, being a Hebrew, who shall sell himself unto thee and serve thee, six years, then shalt thou let him go, free, from thee, Howbeit your fathers hearkened not unto me neither inclined their ear.
15 तर तिमीहरू आफैले चाहिं पश्चात्ताप गरेका र मेरो दृष्टिमा जे ठिक छ, सो गर्न थालेका छौ । तिमीहरू हरेकले आफ्नो छिमेकीलाई स्वतन्त्रताको घोषणा गर्यौ, र मेरो नाउँद्वारा कहलाइने मन्दिरमा तिमीहरूले मेरो सामु करार बाँध्यौ ।
And, though, ye, just now turned and did that which was right in mine eyes, by proclaiming liberty, every man to his neighbour, —and solemnised a covenant before me, in the house on which my Name hath been called,
16 तर तिमीहरू तर्केर गयौ र मेरो नाउँलाई दुषित पार्यौ । तिमीहरूले हरेक मानिसलाई आ-आफ्ना कमारा-कमारी तिनीहरूका आफ्ना इच्छाले जहाँ गएका थिए त्यहाँबाट तिनीहरूलाई तिमीहरूले फिर्ता ल्याउन लगायौ । तिमीहरूले फेरि तिनीहरूलाई जबरदस्ती आफ्ना कमारा तुल्यायौ ।'
yet have ye turned and profaned my Name, and brought back, every man his servant and every man his hand-maid, whom ye had let go, free, at their own desire, —and have brought them into subjection, to become your servants and handmaids.
17 त्यसकारण परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ, 'तिमीहरू आफूले पनि मेरो कुरा सुनेका छैनौ । तिमीहरू हरेकले आफ्ना दाजुभाइ र इस्राएली बन्धुलाई स्वतन्त्रताको घोषणा गर्नुपर्थ्यो । त्यसैले हेर्, अब मैले तिमीहरूका निम्ति स्वतन्त्रताको घोषणा गर्नै लागेको छु, यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो । तिमीहरूलाई तरवार, विपत्ति र अनिकालबाट मर्ने स्वतन्त्रताको घोषणा गर्दैछु, किनकि म तिमीहरूलाई पृथ्वीका हरेक राज्यको दृष्टिमा घिनलाग्दो पात्र बनाउनेछु ।
Therefore—Thus, saith Yahweh, Ye, have not hearkened unto me, in proclaiming liberty, every man to his brother and every man to his neighbour: Behold me! proclaiming, to you, a liberty: Declareth Yahweh unto the sword, unto the pestilence, and unto the famine, so will I make you a terror to all the kingdoms of the earth;
18 त्यसपछि मेरो करार भङ्ग गरेका मानिसहरू, मेरो सामु गरेका करारका वचन पुरा नगर्ने ती मानिसहरूसँग म त्यही साँढेसित गरेजस्तै व्यवहार गर्नेछु, जसलाई तिनीहरूले दुई फ्याक पारे र त्यसको बिचबाट हिंडे,
and will give the men who are transgressing my covenant, in that they have not confirmed the words of the covenant, which they solemnised, before me, when they cut the calf, in twain, and passed between the parts thereof;
19 र यहूदा र यरूशलेमका अगुवाहरू, नपुंसकहरू र पुजारीहरू अनि देशका सबै मानिस त्यही दुई फ्याक गरिएको साँढेको बिचबाट हिंडे ।
even the princes of Judah, and the princes of Jerusalem, the eunuchs and the priests, and all the people of the land, —who passed between the parts of the calf,
20 म तिनीहरूलाई तिनीहरूका शत्रुहरू र तिनीहरूको ज्यान लिन खोज्नेहरूका हातमा दिनेछु । तिनीहरूका लाश आकाशका चराहरू र जमिनका पशुहरूका लागि आहारा हुनेछन् ।
yea I will give them into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of them who are seeking their life, —and their dead bodies shall become food for the birds of the heavens, and for the beasts of the earth.
21 म यहूदाका राजा सिदकियाह र त्यसका अगुवाहरूलाई तिनीहरूका शत्रुहरूका हातमा, र तिनीहरूको ज्यान लिन खोज्नेहरूका हातमा र तिमीहरूका विरुद्धमा खडा भएका बेबिलोनका राजाका सेनाको हातमा दिनेछु ।
Zedekiah king of Judah also with his princes, will I give into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of them who are seeking their life, —even into the hand of the force of the king of Babylon, who are going up from you.
22 यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, हेर् मैले एउटा आज्ञा दिनै लागेको छु, र यस सहरको विरुद्धमा युद्ध गर्न र यसलाई कब्जा गर्न र यसलाई जलाउनलाई म तिनीहरूलाई यहाँ फर्काएर ल्याउन लागेको छु । किनकि म यहूदाका सहरहरूलाई भग्नावशेषको ठाउँ बनाउनेछु, जसमा बासिन्दाहरू हुनेछैनन् ।”
Behold me! giving command, Declareth Yahweh, and I will bring them back unto this city, and they will fight against it and capture it, and consume it with fire, —and, the cities of Judah, will I make too desolate to have an inhabitant.
